      Critical reception


      On its release, Dave Henderson of Sounds was critical of the song, writing, "More hits for men with quiffs. Sure, it's crap, with a dreadful melody line and rhythm lifted from many a moon ago, but, what's new?" Armond White at Spin said "the line 'There's no feeling at all' is belted so powerfully that shtick replaces irony" and called it "oily drivel".
